概要

 In Minnesota, tensions simmer over federal immigration enforcement as U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced 16 arrests of alleged rioters in Minneapolis, with more expected, according to Minnesota News Network. St. Paul Mayor Kaohly Her met with U.S. Border Czar Tom Homan to voice concerns about the ICE surge's impact on communities, calling recent leadership changes promising steps toward resolution. This follows the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by federal agents, prompting two agents' leave and an anti-ICE concert Friday at First Avenue headlined by Tom Morello, benefiting affected families.

Politics saw a pivotal shift with special elections restoring a 67-67 tie in the Minnesota House, as Democrat Meg Luger-Nikolai won District 64A and Shelley Buck took District 47A, per FOX 9 and the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee. This maintains power-sharing amid the DFL's narrow 34-33 Senate edge. Governor Tim Walz released his 2026 capital plan, proposing $700 million in bonds for infrastructure like water systems, public safety facilities, and PFAS removal.

Economically, North Wind Group plans a $1.1 billion aerospace research complex in Rosemount, partnering with the University of Minnesota, as reported by Area Development. Rochester anticipates another $1 billion in construction driven by Mayo Clinic's expansion. Congressman Pete Stauber secured $15 million for northern infrastructure, including highway reconstructions.

Communities grapple with immigration fears affecting schools; districts like Minnetonka stay open amid reports of enforcement nearby, though absenteeism rises, Education Week notes. A Wheaton man died in a house fire, under investigation by the State Fire Marshal.

No major recent weather events reported.

Looking Ahead: Watch for the legislative session's start, more special elections, Homan's ongoing talks, and North Wind's groundbreaking.
